CONDEMNING the heinous act of miscreants cutting the udders of three cows in Bengaluru, BJP leaders on Sunday warned that they would observe a 'Black Sankranti' if the government fails to take action against the accused.
Speaking to reporters on Sunday, after visiting the spot where the act was committed in Cottonpet, Leader of Opposition in the Assembly R Ashoka said this heinous act reflects a "Jihadi mindset". He added that in India, people worship cows as Gomatha, and cows are specially scared during Sankranti.
